Lakoo has released the first update for their massive multiplayer online RPG Empire Online for the iOS devices. Version 1.1 optimizes numerous game elements, introduces new empire system features, and allows for easier download with a smaller file size. Here is more info on this MMORPG for iPhone:

The first of the new features allows emperors to abdicate the throne of their empire. This allows other players to be appointed as emperor by their predecessors, so more players get to experience the thrill of ruling new kingdoms. Aside from gameplay improvements in the 1.1 patch, Empire Online now sports a sleeker file size to support over-the-air downloads, so iPhone users can download directly to their device from the App Store. Now it?s simple and seamless to start building your kingdom, no computer connection required!

These new features in version 1.1 are just the beginning. Lakoo is already working on updates for 1.2, including new loading screens, graphic optimizations, and a new world map feature to more easily track your avatar.
